Upper estimate price exceeded by 64 %.
The work 1997, No.8 by Fang Lijun was sold in the 20th Century & Contemporary Art & Design Day Sale in Association with Poly Auction auction at Phillips in Hong Kong in December 2020. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 1,638,000.00 (€ 172,773.51), 64% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Fang Lijun achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Series 2 No. 4 in October 2014 with an auction result of HKD 59,480,000.00 (€ 6,123,639.27).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 64 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit 1997, No.8 von Fang Lijun wurde im Dezember 2020 in der Auktion 20th Century & Contemporary Art & Design Day Sale in Association with Poly Auction bei Phillips in Hong Kong versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 1.638.000,00 (€ 172.773,51) und damit 64% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Fang Lijun erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Series 2 No. 4 im Oktober 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 59.480.000,00 (€ 6.123.639,27).
